Moms Who Out-Mommed Themselves

When we think of our moms, we tend to think about all the things they do that make them our mom. The way that they look out for us and want the best for us, the ways they can be a little overprotective sometimes, or how out of touch they can be with certain things like technology.

One thing is for certain, though, momisms are traits that no one else cultivates as well as they do.
